Borovets

has got the lot and is the number one ski resort in Bulgaria.

It was Bulgaria’s first ski resort, dating from the 19th century when it was only known to an exclusive few - but now everyone has the opportunity to experience this fun-packed, snow filled spectacular destination!

Set amidst the majestic forest-clad Rila Mountains, once a hunting ground for Bulgarian Kings, Borovets is now internationally renowned.

There are lots of bars and cafes, and these along with the many clubs make après-ski a real attraction. Quite rightly, skiing is its prime concern and Borovets is justly popular with all grades of skiers, with a setting that’s near perfect. If you haven’t discovered this premier ski resort yet, you’re in for a treat!

Over 2 km of slopes in the heart of the resort has been transformed by six new snow cannons, flood lights and music. So who said that skiing ends with the sun going down.
If you don't want to participate in the evening entertainment on the slopes, there are be special evening events, ski shows and carnivals organised for your enjoyment.

The ski area is particularly good for beginners and intermediates and, along with the cheaper prices, this  is an excellent choice of resort for those trying out the sport for the first time.

The World Cup area, reached by the 6-seater gondola, offers the most testing skiing in Bulgaria and there are two challenging runs on the Yastrebets area for the more advanced skier.

 

Après Ski
